How to create Accounting Document Manually if it is not generated through VF11

[former_member462798]

Hi SAP Guru and Expert,

Currently I am facing the issue whereby the cancellation of Billing document through VF11, and there is no accounting document generated due to the posting period has been closed.

What can I do to have the the accounting document being cancelled?

The billing document that being cancelled has no GST, the if the accounting document being cancelled at the open period where there is GST involved, will there be any issue on the accounting document whereby it will incur GST?

Please advise.

Thank you

Regards

Good that your issue is resolved.  But at the same time, why don't you share how it has been resolved so that it will be helpful for those who come across similar issue.  Just updating "Issue Resolved" is not going to help anybody.

Check with your FI specialist and see whether they can open the posting period or for any other alternative.

Two queries were raised by you:-

• One is whether any change in GST value once an Accounting document is generated for the cancelled document and
• second query is how to generate an accounting document for a cancelled billing document for which the period is closed

Now coming to your first query, whatever value is there in cancelled billing document, the same would get transferred to accounting document also and system would not consider GST

To your other query, go to VF02, input the cancelled billing document and execute.  You have the option to change the billing date at header level tab to the current posting period.  Change that date and save so that accounting document would also be generated.

If this is not possible in your case due to some reasons, have a look at the following note as to how to reverse a cancelled billing document

• Note 388489 - Cancelation of a cancelation document

Hi G Lakshmipathi,

in my opinon the author of this thread, Jian Wen Tan,  will first have to specify, exactly what is the problem.

The description, - as I mentioned in my previous reply -, is entirely unclear.

Let's wait for the author's clarification first, before making any definite suggestion.

Best regards,

Hi Jian Wen Tan,

Currently I am facing the issue whereby the cancellation of Billing document through VF11, and there is no accounting document generated due to the posting period has been closed.

of course when the posting period is closed, the accounting document can not be created. Either you will have to open in accounting the posting period (transaction OB52).

Or alternatively the invoice date (VBRK-FKDAT) will have to be modified, to one that fits into the currently open posting period.

What can I do to have the the accounting document being cancelled? 

This question is now unclear! What do you mean and want to achieve? The accounting document could not be created right? But a cancellation invoice had been created, right? What then should be cancelled? You cancelled the invoice, why would you want to cancel an accounting document?

The billing document that being cancelled has no GST, the if the accounting document being cancelled at the open period where there is GST involved, will there be any issue on the accounting document whereby it will incur GST?

This part is entirely mysterious. What do you mean with GST? Goods and Service Tax?

What problem do you see here? Are there any country specific rules for tax reporting?

Best regards,

Tobias
